@tigerbulldog13: Would you rather own Kevin Jepsen or Carson Smith for the rest of the season?

Zinkie: Go with Smith, who has a better chance to collect saves.

@JJackson1523: Would you trade Eric Hosmer for Stephen Strasburg in a dynasty league?

Zinkie: If you are not competing to win this year, then make the trade. If you are in the race, then make the decision based on positional need.

@IronMetalRoses: Clay Buchholz is on the waiver wire. Who should I drop: Matt Moore, Brett Anderson or John Lackey?

Zinkie: Drop Moore, who will likely be inconsistent in the second half.

@lobue0225: Would you trade Matt Kemp and Troy Tulowitzki for Chris Davis, Jean Segura, and Yordano Ventura in a 12-team keeper league?

Zinkie: I would stick with your pair, especially if you are competing to win this year.

@MikeRock22: I've been offered Miguel Cabrera and C.J. Wilson for Francisco Rodriguez and Jacob deGrom. Do I take this deal, even with Miggy on disabled list?

Zinkie: No, you should stick with your two assets. If you need a hitter, trade a pitcher for one who can help now.

@NealHache13: Is Nick Ahmed worth starting over Ian Desmond?

Zinkie: Right now, yes. Desmond should be on the bench until he gets on track.

@CharlieMeyer11: Auction keeper league -- should I trade Carlos Rodon for Cole Hamels? Rodon is $2 and Hamels is $17.
